Choirs of the Center

Since 1982, Center Stage Youth Choirs, (formerly the Youth Honors Choral Program,) has taught children the art and joy of singing beautifully. CSYC are dedicated to nurturing the voices of young singers, to help them develop a sense of artistry, a sense of responsibility and of ensemble, and to encourage a life-long love of singing and the choral arts.

The CSYC is open to students entering grades 3-to-8 in the Fall of 2019. Singers should have in-tune, unchanged singing voices, must be dependable for making all rehearsals and performances, and must be able to stay on-task for the duration of a rehearsal.

Directed by Heather DeGroot, Jillian Struble, Amanda Perkins, Anna Doering and Tracey Kempsell. There are three choirs, Prelude, Lyrics, and Bel Canto. Placement in these ensembles will be based on experience and ability.
